This is pure magic. He's doing with his voice, whatever he want. Best Ville's vocal and (for me) the best version of "For you". So young, so full of passion, so true. Great times.
I can never listen to this song without crying...especially live performances of it. It just strikes such a chord. This is why I love HIM. To be so emotionally connected with a song is a beautiful thing. "For You" is my favorite song in the world. I'd listen to it for the rest of my life.
I remember, once when I was a teenager, I turned on MTV channel like a good girl - for some pop-boys-band... And there was HIM! I felt a guilty pleasure enjoying their song... And over and over again a was watching music videos with a guilty hope of seeing HIM.. And Rammstein... And Apocalyptica... Thank you Ville, you have defined my music preferences and kinda vector of personal choices and self-raising. That was important Love the band despite anything!
@Martin Madden this concert was recorded in 1998 and the next generation thing was a joke 🙄ville was 22 in 1998 and I was 25 but the kids who watched viva were 10 years younger and yes I liked grunge and metal when I was a teenager and alternative, I didn't listen to new kids on the block. I think that was pretty ok and yes, I liked Nirvana They did something new after all that hair rock thing and they were also the soundtrack for another way of thinking about life. If this made me a smack. Person {I have no idea what that means, I am German}, it s ok for me. 😂
Goodbye His Infernal Majesty, this was the first song I listened from you guys and it was love at first sight. Your music is immortal and you are the most successful Finnish metal band to have ever graced Finland. So many bands I discovered thanks to you guys. See you in hell!
I am fan of HIM since I had 16 years but Ville, today is not the same as he was here, and is normal. No one can be at 46 years like a teenager but when Ville was young he had so much passion in his voice, in his song, lyrics, his eyes and the way that pasions it felt, was really special. He had an incredibly strog and versatile voice.
@@diaverde5118 yeah, sleep deficiency with booze, drugs, smoking and touring along with bad eating makes you 30 years older. Been there, done that. Glad he's living "better" now and making new music. He's our biggest influencer in music along with Sibelius and Tuomas Holopainen.
I had the pleasure of seeing HIM on the farewell tour and it was amazing but God damn I would fucking die to have been at this show in that Era of HIM. Incredible performance.
Love how heavy yet melancholic sounded HIM back on this time. This song is so hard and melodic at the same time that is unbelievable, they had their unique sound that still no one has nearly recreate.
God I wish one of these popular vocal coach reactors on RU-vid would react to this, this was peak Ville and he was just incredible at this time. He and HIM deserve the attention but sadly don’t get it from stuff like reaction channels. This whole overdrive show is incredible tho and for you is a top 2 song of theirs for me and this performance is the best
Holy crap I'm laying in bed and I'm traveling 17 years back in time. Feels strange. So many buried feelings. Not sure if I was happier than I am today, but one thing I know for sure: HIM helped to shape my emotional self.
In the grace of your love oh, I writhe in pain In 666 ways I love you and I hope you feel the same I'm for you I'm for you I'm killing myself for your love and again all is lost In 777 ways I love you 'til my death do us part I'm for you I'm for you (And my heaven is wherever you are) I'm for you (And I'm dying for your love) I'm for you (And my heaven is wherever you are) I am here for you (I'm here for you) I am here for you (I'm here for you) I am here for you (I'm here for you) I am here for you
vERY AMZING VOICE..whats the best thing about Ville voice is can switch to Deep, Pulsito, scream and growl...very smoothley!! The best thing about Ville!
this is my favorite song tied with stigmata but this is also the heaviest version ive heard. this band never ceases to surprise me even now. timeless music
I remember playing it from my PC output on Unitra with 2x 140W Unitra tonsil speakers. At 3:03 a always went to turn the volume near to the max.. in order to keep the clear sound.. The whole village could hear that. That was a blast.
I just really really like this song. This song (the whole album) was playing on repeat in my CD player more than 20 years ago. This will never get old for me!
Es una de mis canciones de HIM favoritas, me encanta como suena la guitarra en esta cancion y obvio la voz de ville wow es inspiradora!! ville i love u!!!!
trust the good ones mate ; ) i have an ex i gave her this song and i think she deserves it.. i could die for her..i still love her and i will always do.. she is a part of me now..
I hope their next album will resemble this. Cause this is brilliant, deliciously dark, sexy, raw, heavy with sound and emotion, and with audible finnish melancholy to it. I'm not saying their latest stuff sucks, not at all - I like it, but I miss this... And I miss Ville's finnish/british not-able-to-hide-accent "R". Selfishly I think they should spend more time in Europe from now on -.-
